So, tens of thousands of years ago, according to the rules of "Wanghai City", all the mortals were relocated.
Nowadays, inside "Wanghai City", besides the army of cultivators guarding the city, there are only the businesses operating within the city and their staff.
As for others, like Li Yunjing and his group, they are temporary entrants into "Wanghai City".
There is no permanent residency in "Wanghai City".
Whether they are tourists, purchasing materials in the city, or entering the sea region to hunt demon beasts and collect marine resources,
they can choose to stay at inns or temporarily rent houses.
These houses are all owned by the "Wanghai City" authorities, renewed every ten years.
Short-term rentals are not allowed.
Anyway, cultivators coming here for various purposes are all temporary residents.
